After a couple games and a fair amount of time in the training here's my thoughts so far as a new player here.

- Change the color of water tiles so that they differ from the surrounding traversable tiles. I'm not sure if every map is this way, however the campaign that I am in has water tiles that are the exact same color as all of the surrounding tiles.

- Sounds? Melee swing, ballista projectile launching, etc. Someone more creative than I am can probably provide some input here.

- Bug fixes!
- Battles have been a nightmare. Players can't end their turn, troops not populating, game ends after turn 1.
- Duels - income is not being generated during the transition from turn 1-2. Only after ending your 2nd turn does your income/tribute/barracks points increase.
- Online manual only seems to be working for the firefox browser and I honestly didn't think anyone even still used firefox. I've tried with no success on chrome, explorer, and safari. As a new player this information is critical.
- There's a web chat/irc chat that appears to be broken so the only way to talk to people is through hoping they see a private message.

These are just some of a new guy's thoughts. Honestly so far the game has been fun, but it's obviously been difficult to get games in. A little love would give people the ability to promote the game via reddit, youtube, tiktok, facebook, etc and hopefully draw in/retain a player base.

There's another post in this suggestion forum from several years ago that I think still holds relevant as well.

I know that I am very late to the party on this game, but I find it fun and I hope that some TLC can be given. I think there is certainly an audience that enjoys games like this and it seems like in it's prime there was a very active playerbase. Those who are here for now could focus on staying active and maybe in time it will grow again. I'd hate to see it die completely
